NFL Super Bowl XLI: Colts 29 Bears 17
Super Bowl XLI MVP Peyton Manning passed for 247 yards and 1 touchdown as the Colts won their first Super Bowl in 36 years. The Colts outgained the Bears 430-265 in total yards and maintained a 38:04-21:56 edge in time of possession. Devin Hester opened the game with a 92-yard kickoff return for a touchdown, the first time the Super Bowl began with a touchdown. Two possessions later, on third-and-10, Manning found Reggie Wayne wide open deep down the middle for a 53-yard touchdown. A steady rain forced the teams to commit 4 first-quarter turnovers, and Hunter Smith mishandled the snap on the extra point, allowing the Bears to maintain a 7-6 lead. Later in the quarter, Thomas Jones’ 52-yard run set up Rex Grossman’s short touchdown pass to Muhsin Muhammad for a 14-6 lead. The Colts scored on back-to-back drives to begin the second quarter, capped by Dominic Rhodes’ 1-yard run, for a 16-14 lead. To begin the second half, the Colts ran 7:34 off the clock with a 13-play, 56-yard drive that culminated with Adam Vinatieri’s 24- yard field goal for a 19-14 lead. The teams then exchanged field goals, and the Bears forced a punt. On first-and-10 from the Bears’ 38 with 11:59 to play, Grossman’s pass intended for Muhammad was thrown high. Kelvin Hayden intercepted the pass, maneuvered up the sideline while staying inbounds, and raced 56 yards for a touchdown. It was Hayden’s first-ever professional interception. Four plays later, Bob Sanders intercepted Grossman’s deep pass. The Bears got the ball back twice, but never ran a play across midfield. Manning, who won the Pete Rozelle MVP award, was 25 of 38 for 247 yards and 1 touchdown, with 1 interception. Rhodes carried 21 times for 113 yards. Joseph Addai had 10 receptions for 66 yards. Grossman was 20 of 28 for 165 yards and 1 touchdown, with 2 interceptions. Jones rushed 15 times for 112 yards. SUPER BOWL XLI MVP : QB Peyton Manning, Indianapolis Colts
